at first you talk to everyone
then you talk to only your friends
then you talk to only your closest friends
then you talk to only your best friend
then you stop talking at all
then you lose the ability to talk

at first you see everyone
then you see only your friends
then you see only your closest friends
then you see only your best friend
then you stop seeing anyone else
then you lose the ability to see

at first you feel everyone
then you feel only your friends
then you feel only your closest friends
then you feel only your best friend
then you stop feeling for anyone
then you lose the ability to feel

along with listening ...
i guess we lose more than just our senses as we grow up

over mountains, over seas ...
far far away
a tiny speck of light catches your eye
how do you catch that speck of light?
